In Atlantic City, pg slot machines are required by law to have a minimum payout percentage of 83%.
However, most casinos set their payout percentages higher, often ranging between 85% to 98%. This means that for every dollar wagered, the machines must return at least 83 cents over time, though actual payouts can vary significantly based on the game's design and player behavior.
The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement regulates these standards to ensure fair play for patrons.
